My favorite Brad moments are when he randomly shows up during someone else's thing.

I'd put Andy higher. Him and Brad are (to me) like this perfect mix of personalities. Brad is like this giant golden shepherd. Eager to be loved, and lovely to everyone, but when it's time to get down to business, will do so. Andy is a ball of anxiety and sass, but when it comes to Brad, he knows what the dude wants, and is willing to let the dude play. The rest, I couldn't really rank. They all have their personality that shines through. Claire forever doing what'ever Chris says. Rick being epic with his perfect manicure all the time. Molly sassing the hell out of Rappo. Dear god I don't know how such a tiny person has SO MUCH sass. Carla getting her /entire/ life with the drag queen during their cooking segments together.

I'm honestly disappointed you didn't continue the dog analogy for all the BA cooks. I was sure you would call Andy a pug.

Mu Zeta posted:He wears tinted glasses indoors Everything about him is slightly off and I appreciate that energy. The 'every way to cook a...' videos are the perfect combination of informative and watching test kitchen hosts defile themselves for clicks. Like, at first he's showing you how to prepare tartare and then he's drinking a steak smoothie.

The BA crew finally getting together and cooking Thanksgiving was a delightful explosion of anxiety and panic and I'm very, very glad they did this series.

It seems so obvious to cook a turkey in pieces. Such makes it weirdest because I have NEVER seen a recipe that suggested that. Do people fetishize the whole bird that much? I didn't really grow up celebrating Thanksgiving.

yeh a whole bird browned and sitting on the table is a thing. families are used to dry poo poo and as an outsider for whom thanksgiving also wasn't a thing, it was weird

Yeah, they barely even bother advertising deals on turkey pieces and it’s like pulling teeth to get a lot of families to consider ham or game hens or literally anything less finicky than a whole roast. A not insignificant number of people give themselves food poisoning every year because they just HAVE to have stuffing cooked in the bird

I didn't really grow up celebrating Thanksgiving. I feel like Kenji has been banging the table about it for ages, and I feel like Alton Brown has suggested it at least once. There is also the perennial goon favorite of spatchcocking the turkey My aunt who always does Thanksgiving has been cooking them separately for years, and I'm extremely sad we're not going to her place for Thanksgiving this year

Turkey breasts cost as much as a whole turkey and most people don't know how to break down a bird plus the whole turkey is an iconic American dish. No big deal.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HEFmFOlSaQ

The owner of the Indian buffet I used to half live at told me one year he did his family’s bird tandoori style  (My mom uses Alton Brown’s brining recipe and it’s always amazing)

Didn't they say that if you eat them in sufficient quantity, they're a meal? Like 8 or more? I've had four dumplings as a snack before.

Almost all of that was what I expected out of them, except for Rick being the only one to call nachos a meal. What the hell is that. Also I'm with Steve Yun, the only difference between a snack and a meal is the quantity in most circumstances. Popcorn, potato chips, and bowls of candy are the only things that never transition from "snack" to "meal" if you eat a lot. Past a certain point, they go from "i had a snack of <thing>" to "i had too many of <thing> and i want to die" but never actually reach "meal."

The BA site has a recipe for the best morning buns as well. Aren't morning buns just cinnamon buns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqy4XFraBlk

In my mind, morning buns have a cinnamon sugar topping and usually are kinda crisp when you bite into em. Cinnamon buns/rolls are soft and have icing or cream cheese frosting.

Tangentially related to Dave Chang Chat from last page: he interviews some awesome people on his podcast and I really want to hear more, but he is a Really Bad Interviewer. Like, to the point where sometimes it's almost like the Chris Farley show from SNL. I like him talking with his guests about the industry and reminiscing about working crazy hours and grinding it out, but I have a really hard time listening to him try to interview his colleagues. Are there any similar podcasts about the restaurant industry, possibly with an insider like Chang, but maybe a better conversationalist?

Racist Sandwich is about lots of stuff, not just the industry, but they have some industry episodes and they are good interviewers.

On a whim i rewatched (maybe I never saw it when it aired originally?) Bourdain's No Reservations New York Christmas special on hulu. I got to learn about Catalan and Austrian Christmas traditions and watch Tony get shat on by the James Beard-winning kitchen crew at les halles. Goddamn, is there ever a great cameo from a longtime Bourdain punching bag, Samantha Brown. It was a weird, fun one off and now I'm bummed his kid is without her dad again over the holidays

I really want that pizza oven they use in the BA kitchen but it's like $700. Way too much for an oven that only cooks pizza.
